International business is conducted outside of the home country. Nations represent cultural diversity, with unique values, metaphors, stereotypes, idioms and language. How will you deal with people from another country? How will you function effectively when visiting countries with distinctive cultures, such as Mexico, China, Russia, Japan, or Switzerland? Solution There is no culture-free theory of management. Managing other people is the responsibility of people who, like everyone else, have been enculturated and socialized into a cultural set of values and beliefs that governs their thinking, emotions, and behaviors. Like communication, management is culture bound. Moreover, managerial perceptions regarding the factors that lead to organizational success vary across cultures. Unfortunately, many U.S. managers are ill equipped to handle overseas assignments. In fact, roughly 40% to 50% of all U.S. managers sent abroad receive no formal cross-cultural training. As a result, up to 40% of overseas assignments are unsuccessful. Although fostering competent intercultural managerial skills represents an enormous challenge, the rewards of successful international commerce are extraordinary. Professor Philip Rosenzweig of Harvard University argues that successful cross-cultural management depends on the abilities of managers to communicate effectively. Rosenzweig points out that communication is especially important during the initial stages of a business relationship. Depending on the culture, the process of building trust among business partners may take days, weeks, or even months. Moreover, Rosenzweig asserts, this process cannot be accelerated. Rosenzweig recognizes that many American managers prefer to .

Global University Expansion Presentation
The document discusses a university's plans to expand abroad by building a new campus in Japan over a 5-year period. It aims to foster collaboration, raise the institution's global profile, attract top students and faculty, and generate financial returns. However, there are potential pitfalls like expatriate culture shock that require training. Understanding Japanese culture, such as communication styles, relationships, and motivations, will also be important for success. References are provided on cross-cultural management topics.

Solution
Culture of a society means the way people do things living in a society. This varies from place to
place to a large level. People living in a society will have different cultures, customs, behaviours,
language which can become a barrier if not tackled in the right way.
It is important for an international manager to understand it because of the trend of globalising
the business in international market. When the business is expanded to different places problems
are faced to understand the culture of that place and adjust to make variations according to the

Cross Cultural Lessons in Leadership from Project GLOBE
Mansour Javidan, Peter W. Dorfman, Mary Sully de Luque, and Robert J. House*
Executive Overview
Global leadership has been identified as a critical success factor for large multinational corporations. While
there is much writing on the topic, most seems to be either general advice (i.e., being open minded and
respectful of other cultures) or very specific information about a particular country based on a limited case
study (do not show the soles of your shoes when seated as a guest in an Arab country). Both kinds of
information are certainly useful, but limited from both theoretical and practical viewpoints on how to lead
in a foreign country. In this paper, findings from the Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior
Effectiveness (GLOBE) research program are used to provide a sound basis for conceptualizing worldwide
leadership differences. We use a hypothetical case of an American executive in charge of four similar teams
in Brazil, France, Egypt, and China to discuss cultural implications for the American executive. Using the
hypothetical case involving five different countries allows us to provide in-depth action oriented and
context specific advice, congruent with GLOBE findings, for effectively interacting with employees from
different cultures. We end the paper with a discussion of the challenges facing global executives and how
corporations can develop useful global leadership capabilities.
Impact of Globalization
A
lmost no American corporation is immune
from the impact of globalization. The reality
for American corporations is that they must
increasingly cope with diverse cross-cultural em-
ployees, customers, suppliers, competitors, and
creditors, a situation well captured by the follow-
ing quote.
So I was visiting a businessman in downtown Jakarta the

Intercultural Leadership -Anne Egros
Cultural differences have a significant impact on business interactions and can be a source of conflict if not properly understood and navigated. Culture encompasses many aspects including language, religion, values, norms, and behaviors. Effective intercultural communication and leadership require cultural literacy, an awareness of one's own culture as well as respect and curiosity for other cultures. Strategies for successful intercultural leadership include being aware of cultural differences, showing respect, managing reactions, giving feedback sensitively, and leveraging diversity.

In an ever-changing world, intercultural business communication is one of the most vital aspects of carrying out business in foreign countries. We are set up to fail if we enter into foreign business agreements blindly. In the absence of proper communication skills, cultural awareness comes into play knowing the culture in which we are dealing. All of your concepts you may have grown up with and ideas that you have formed beforehand need to be thrown away and cast to the side. Your concepts and ideas in these business meetings will only be as effective as your communication skills. If your communications skills are weak so will be your presentation of your projected business plan. If I was going to develop a training program on the same, my lesson plan would look as illustrated below:
I. Class Objectives: The goals or objectives for class include understanding how language affects intercultural business communications and learning about different cultures and how they communicate when conducting business activities.
II. Connection to Course Goals: The class’s daily objectives will connect to the overall course goals by dealing with one topic at a time.
III. Anticipatory Set: What is usually involved in intercultural business communication and how should one behave if relocated to foreign countries such as United Arab Emirates, Mexico, China and Israel?
IV. Cultural Awareness
V. High vs. Low Context Cultures
VI. Language: Verbal vs. Non-Verbal
VII. Conversational Taboos
VIII. Interaction: Ethical/Unethical awareness
IX. Conclusion: connecting the objectives
My developed training program will help my students target and grasp the importance of the concepts listed and how they connect to one another. You will need to know a number of things regarding Cultural Awareness, High vs. Low Context Cultures, and Verbal vs. Non-Verbal, Conversational Taboos, and Interaction Ethical/Unethical awareness, and connecting the objectives. “Low context language is where things are fully spelled out or made explicit where there is also considerable dependence on what is actually being said or written (Gibson, 2002).” Western cultures tend to be inclined more toward low context language while Eastern and
Southern cultures are more inclined to use high context language (LeBaron, 2003).“High context language is whereby communicators assume a great deal of commonality of opinions and knowledge so that not much is made explicit (Novinger, 2001).” In other words, communication is in indirect ways. It is of crucial importance for business individuals venturing overseas to learn more about the business culture and etiquette present in countries such as Mexico, China, United Arab Emirates and Israel as they are not the same as the American business culture.

2.4 International and Intercultural Interpersonal Communication
Learning Objective # 4: What additional challenges are present in international and intercultural interpersonal
communication?
Conducting business in today's modern business environment presents exciting opportunities for businesses and individuals. Markets and sales expand as
new social contacts are made and undiscovered cultures are explored, both within a nation's boundaries and with potential customers in other countries.
Many U.S. companies recognize the existence of two distinct potential advantages present due to cultural differences within the nation's borders. First, a rich
pool of new employees with diverse perspectives and interests infuses energy into a company's operations. Second, many cultural groups, including
Hispanics and Asian Americans, offer valuable target market segments that may be reached.
International business programs often begin with expansion into countries with many of the same cultural conditions, such as a Canadian �irm selling
products in the United States. Soon, however, an international program can move into countries with different languages and cultures. In both circumstances,
effective business communication involves understanding of—and adaptation to—cultural nuances and differences.
Cultural Dimensions
To understand individual communication while accounting for cultural differences, take note of the primary types of cultural differences. For years, the most
widely-cited dimensions of culture have been those proposed by Geert Hofstede, as displayed in Table 2.11. (More detail can be found at:
http://www.geert-hofstede.com (http://www.geert-hofstede.com) .)
Table 2.11: Hofstede's value dimensions of culture
Power Distance Distance between leaders and followers; authoritarian versus collaborative relationships
Individualism or Collectivism Value of personal status versus loyalty to the group
Masculinity-Femininity Male-dominated society versus more equal status between genders
Uncertainty Avoidance Risk-taking versus risk-avoidance societies
Short- or Long-Term Orientation Immediate versus long-term, strategic outcomes
Power distance affects communication patterns between individuals and in group settings. A culture exhibiting high power distance is one in which
managers are far less approachable by low-ranking employees. In such a culture, rank affects patterns of collaboration. Use of formal language becomes
more likely in higher power distance cultural settings. Conversely, in low power distance cultures, l.
Cross-cultural leadesrship
The document discusses cross-cultural issues in management. It notes that cultural differences can often cause conflicts in business. Culture includes factors like language, religion, values, norms, body language, and concepts of time, fairness, and leadership. Effective intercultural communication and leadership require cultural literacy. Strategies for leaders include being aware of one's own culture, showing respect for others, communicating clearly, and leveraging differences for mutual gain.
Cross cultural issues in global hrm
This document discusses the importance of understanding cultural differences in managing a global workforce. It provides context on how globalization has increased diversity in workplaces and the need for cross-cultural understanding. Several frameworks for analyzing cultural dimensions are introduced, including individualism vs collectivism, power distance, uncertainty avoidance, and masculinity vs femininity. The document emphasizes that respecting different cultures, gaining knowledge of foreign cultures, and managing cultural differences strategically can help organizations overcome obstacles and benefit from diversity.
Part 1 International managers at multinational corporations mus.docx
Part 1: International managers at multinational corporations must learn about the host country’s culture. For example, proper attire, timeliness and how to address their foreign colleagues. They also need to understand the differences in how people lead and work in comparison to those of their own country. They must be able to communicate with them at their level for employees to understand the meaning of their statements. The issue of how we communicate and perceive those communications is important. The German leader and the Indian worker had communication issue which led to a delay in a project and employee quitting.
Deresky (2013) notes “Managing people and processes in other countries requires a working knowledge of the cultural variables affecting management decisions and how to use that knowledge to adapt behaviors and expectations accordingly. This skill has become known as cultural intelligence, or cultural quotient (CQ)—a measure of how well a person can adapt and manage effectively in culturally diverse settings” (p. 73).
Communication across cultures is the ability to be aware of how people from different parts of the world communicate with each other. It is also important to confirm how they view relationships with their leaders. Is the leader the final decision maker or is collaboration how they are accustomed to solving problems? The manager/leader must study how the foreign employee communicates based on their social culture and norms. The cultural variables are attitudes; social organization; thought patterns; roles; language (spoken or written); nonverbal communication (including kinesic behavior, proxemics, paralanguage, and object language); and time (Deresky, 2013).
Part 2:
A manager’s understanding of the business culture in other countries, is a critical role in the overall success of the organization. Deresky states “managing people and processes in other countries requires a working knowledge to adapt behaviors of culture variables affecting management decisions and how to use that knowledge to adapt behaviors and expectations accordingly” (Deresky, p. 73). It’s key that the manager and the organization, prepare properly by conducting research in the countries native business etiquette to develop a respectable work environment for the employees that they’ll oversee.
The same applies to foreign businesses conducting business in North America. They would need to be open to North American culture when it comes to business & leisure traditions. For instance, India has a population made up of mostly Hindus & Muslims. If an Indian ran company in the US has a business dinner or party with their American counterparts and employee’s, they should open to the employee’s eating specific foods, having a glass of wine, etc, and not think any different of that person from personal or business standpoint. Brazil for example, has a traditional business characteristic to being very close and maintaining eye con.

With the rapid development of the economy, the development of enterprises has already shown a pattern of diversified development. More and more enterprises have gone abroad, and many foreign-funded enterprises have come to China for development. All these have brought a lot of opportunities for economic development at home and abroad. According to the course materials, I notice that the necessity of corporate intercultural adaptation. Intercultural communication is the study and practice of communication across cultural contexts (Bennet). Intercultural communication is a way to deal with relations among individuals from these gatherings that focus on the acknowledgment and regard of social contrasts, looks for the objective of common adjustment prompting biculturalism as opposed to straightforward osmosis, and supports the improvement of intercultural affectability with respect to people and associations to empower empathic understanding and equipped coordination of activity across social contrasts (Bennet). Based on the presentations and case analysis, adapting intercultural is the process of positive change in order to adapt to a new culture. This process can involve changing someone's beliefs and attitudes, knowledge, and skills. In cross-border trade, companies come into contact with people with different cultural backgrounds. These people often use different languages and have different customs and styles. These differences often lead to trouble. The external cultural features include language and eating habits, while the internal cultural features include beliefs, attitudes, and values. Successful acculturation includes adhering to the original values, customs, and beliefs while actively respecting the new culture and treating the two cultures fairly and unbiased.
All in all, what I learned from course, presentation and case analysis is, business leaders should recognize the cultural differences in foreign trade, attach importance to the cultivation of employees' intercultural adaptability and the improvement of their intercultural communication skills. Due to the acceleration of globalization, the cross-cultural adaptability of an enterprise is particularly important for its development, the organizations and companies should identify cultural differences and develop cultural identity.

It addresses the importance of cross-cultural management, including insufficient awareness, understanding, willingness, and skills regarding cultural differences. The document also discusses organizational culture in multinational corporations, staffing philosophies for international enterprises, forms of international human resource management, and how human resource management activities differ materially for domestic versus international operations in the context of globalization.
Cross culture communication
Group 8 presented on cultural issues in business communication. They discussed that culture is the distinctive way of life united by common language and rules that shape beliefs and behaviors. Communication across cultural lines can be challenging when interacting outside one's comfort zone. There are six fundamental patterns of cultural difference including communication styles, conflict approaches, and decision making styles. Factors like language, environment, social organization, and nonverbal communication influence cross-cultural exchanges. The presentation provided a model for developing cultural competency and outlined ways to facilitate communication across cultural boundaries such as recognizing differences, building self-awareness, and maintaining proper etiquette. Key differences between Japanese and American business cultures were also highlighted.

Culture is a complex system of learned behaviors and beliefs shared by a society that influences business interactions. To succeed internationally, businesses must understand cultural differences and similarities to effectively operate across borders. Culture encompasses many dimensions like communication styles, social hierarchies, gender norms, and views of time that vary greatly between high and low context cultures. Companies can become agents of change but must also respect local customs. Cross-cultural training helps individuals and firms adapt to new environments.

It notes that in 1997, American MNCs had 150,000 expatriates abroad and 83,000 foreign employees in the US, with over 31 million international workers globally and $11 trillion in worldwide MNC sales. Success of international business depends on expatriates, but expatriate failure rates range from 10-50% depending on country, with the US at 30-40% typically due to cultural adjustments, language barriers, and living difficulties. Proper selection, training, support and repatriation are keys to expatriate success.

Intercultural relations is a relatively new field of social science that studies how to see the world through the eyes of other cultures. It aims to train students to understand, communicate with, and accomplish goals outside their own cultures. Effective intercultural communication is important as globalization and multicultural workforces have shrunk the world. Developing cultural sensitivity involves recognizing both similarities and differences between cultures without making judgments. Comparing cultures requires understanding factors like relationships to the environment, time orientation, and views of human nature. Theories provide frameworks for analyzing differences in areas such as power distance, individualism, and uncertainty avoidance.

Core Competencies of an Effective Cross-Cultural Manager
Cross-cultural management broadly involves handling workforce teams comprised of people of diverse backgrounds. Though usually considered ethnocentric, as we have discovered, one's "culture" is an amalgamation of the individuals, groups, environments and experiences that have shaped thoughts, perceptions, values, and beliefs. To manage diversity, organizations take action through formal and informal structures that are designed to create greater inclusion of employees. This effort includes implementation of deliberate policies and programs that support an inclusive workplace strategy. In addition, managers and leaders of diverse teams must be developed to be culturally competent as well as educated on laws and precedents related to workplace discrimination and appropriateness.

2.4 International and Intercultural Interpersonal Communication
Learning Objective # 4: What additional challenges are present in international and intercultural interpersonal
communication?
Conducting business in today's modern business environment presents exciting opportunities for businesses and individuals. Markets and sales expand as
new social contacts are made and undiscovered cultures are explored, both within a nation's boundaries and with potential customers in other countries.
Many U.S. companies recognize the existence of two distinct potential advantages present due to cultural differences within the nation's borders. First, a rich
pool of new employees with diverse perspectives and interests infuses energy into a company's operations. Second, many cultural groups, including
Hispanics and Asian Americans, offer valuable target market segments that may be reached.
International business programs often begin with expansion into countries with many of the same cultural conditions, such as a Canadian �irm selling
products in the United States. Soon, however, an international program can move into countries with different languages and cultures. In both circumstances,
effective business communication involves understanding of—and adaptation to—cultural nuances and differences.
Cultural Dimensions
To understand individual communication while accounting for cultural differences, take note of the primary types of cultural differences. For years, the most
widely-cited dimensions of culture have been those proposed by Geert Hofstede, as displayed in Table 2.11. (More detail can be found at:
http://www.geert-hofstede.com (http://www.geert-hofstede.com) .)
Table 2.11: Hofstede's value dimensions of culture
Power Distance Distance between leaders and followers; authoritarian versus collaborative relationships
Individualism or Collectivism Value of personal status versus loyalty to the group
Masculinity-Femininity Male-dominated society versus more equal status between genders
Uncertainty Avoidance Risk-taking versus risk-avoidance societies
Short- or Long-Term Orientation Immediate versus long-term, strategic outcomes
Power distance affects communication patterns between individuals and in group settings. A culture exhibiting high power distance is one in which
managers are far less approachable by low-ranking employees. In such a culture, rank affects patterns of collaboration. Use of formal language becomes
more likely in higher power distance cultural settings. Conversely, in low power distance cultures, l.

Part 1 International managers at multinational corporations mus.docx
Part 1: International managers at multinational corporations must learn about the host country’s culture. For example, proper attire, timeliness and how to address their foreign colleagues. They also need to understand the differences in how people lead and work in comparison to those of their own country. They must be able to communicate with them at their level for employees to understand the meaning of their statements. The issue of how we communicate and perceive those communications is important. The German leader and the Indian worker had communication issue which led to a delay in a project and employee quitting.
Deresky (2013) notes “Managing people and processes in other countries requires a working knowledge of the cultural variables affecting management decisions and how to use that knowledge to adapt behaviors and expectations accordingly. This skill has become known as cultural intelligence, or cultural quotient (CQ)—a measure of how well a person can adapt and manage effectively in culturally diverse settings” (p. 73).
Communication across cultures is the ability to be aware of how people from different parts of the world communicate with each other. It is also important to confirm how they view relationships with their leaders. Is the leader the final decision maker or is collaboration how they are accustomed to solving problems? The manager/leader must study how the foreign employee communicates based on their social culture and norms. The cultural variables are attitudes; social organization; thought patterns; roles; language (spoken or written); nonverbal communication (including kinesic behavior, proxemics, paralanguage, and object language); and time (Deresky, 2013).
Part 2:
A manager’s understanding of the business culture in other countries, is a critical role in the overall success of the organization. Deresky states “managing people and processes in other countries requires a working knowledge to adapt behaviors of culture variables affecting management decisions and how to use that knowledge to adapt behaviors and expectations accordingly” (Deresky, p. 73). It’s key that the manager and the organization, prepare properly by conducting research in the countries native business etiquette to develop a respectable work environment for the employees that they’ll oversee.
The same applies to foreign businesses conducting business in North America. They would need to be open to North American culture when it comes to business & leisure traditions. For instance, India has a population made up of mostly Hindus & Muslims. If an Indian ran company in the US has a business dinner or party with their American counterparts and employee’s, they should open to the employee’s eating specific foods, having a glass of wine, etc, and not think any different of that person from personal or business standpoint. Brazil for example, has a traditional business characteristic to being very close and maintaining eye con.

With the rapid development of the economy, the development of enterprises has already shown a pattern of diversified development. More and more enterprises have gone abroad, and many foreign-funded enterprises have come to China for development. All these have brought a lot of opportunities for economic development at home and abroad. According to the course materials, I notice that the necessity of corporate intercultural adaptation. Intercultural communication is the study and practice of communication across cultural contexts (Bennet). Intercultural communication is a way to deal with relations among individuals from these gatherings that focus on the acknowledgment and regard of social contrasts, looks for the objective of common adjustment prompting biculturalism as opposed to straightforward osmosis, and supports the improvement of intercultural affectability with respect to people and associations to empower empathic understanding and equipped coordination of activity across social contrasts (Bennet). Based on the presentations and case analysis, adapting intercultural is the process of positive change in order to adapt to a new culture. This process can involve changing someone's beliefs and attitudes, knowledge, and skills. In cross-border trade, companies come into contact with people with different cultural backgrounds. These people often use different languages and have different customs and styles. These differences often lead to trouble. The external cultural features include language and eating habits, while the internal cultural features include beliefs, attitudes, and values. Successful acculturation includes adhering to the original values, customs, and beliefs while actively respecting the new culture and treating the two cultures fairly and unbiased.
All in all, what I learned from course, presentation and case analysis is, business leaders should recognize the cultural differences in foreign trade, attach importance to the cultivation of employees' intercultural adaptability and the improvement of their intercultural communication skills. Due to the acceleration of globalization, the cross-cultural adaptability of an enterprise is particularly important for its development, the organizations and companies should identify cultural differences and develop cultural identity.

To succeed internationally, businesses must understand cultural differences and similarities to effectively operate across borders.

Indicate the functions of the agent process in a network operating sys.docx
Indicate the functions of the agent process in a network operating system?
Solution
Answer: In a network operating system, an agent process is involved in the following:
1. In interpreting user commands
2. In deciding whether to allow entry of an host to network services or not.
3. To maintain database of relations among user, remote host and task. For example, information about hosts to which access is allowed for each user, log-in details, nature of allowed tasks etc.
4. In file management including allowing access to files to users as per their authorization at remote hosts.
5. In mapping the textual host name to host address.
6. In maintaing its own directory structure.
7. In maintaining a fixed set of files, common uitlity procedures etc. available to the users of network.
8. May hide file naming and other local conventions from remote user, if required.
9. May provide an environment in which a directory entry can be made for all remote files being accessed by each interested user.

Interpretation 102-4 in the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct calls f.docx
Interpretation 102-4 in the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct calls for differences of opinion between the controller and CFO to be first taken up with:
the CEO.
the board of directors.
the external auditors.
the SEC.
Solution
According to AICPA guideline code 102-4 requires that any financial interpretation should be made in such a manner that it does not represent misstatement of fact. In this connection very often differences in the opinion is observed among two or more members. such difference can be solved in the followng manner:
1. Members will sit together and discuss among themselves on the issue. If it is observed that interpretation properly reflect the fact without any misinterpretation and higher authority is of the same view, then it will be accepted. No changes are required.
2. If members are doubted on these points, then it should be referred to next higher authority. That authority must be within the organization.
In this problem difference in opinion has been observed between controller and chief financial officers. They belong to middle level.There next higher authority is members of board of directors. External auditors or SEC are not belonging to the organization. They are outside authority. Chief financial officer is responsible for financial planning, record keeping andreporting to higher authority. He is directly responsible to Chief executive officer or President of the company.
Thus in this case difference of opinion should be first taken up with CEO. Thereafter if required, it can be taken up with board of Directors.
Answer: Thus correct answer is CEO.

internet domain names are linked to trademark issues- Technology makes.docx
internet domain names are linked to trademark issues. Technology makes it easy to copy and distribute musiceand movies without paying royalties. Business conducted on the internet raise security and privacy issues. What legal concerns are raised by these issues?
Solution
Companies that are solely based on the internet to generate traffic and revenues are faced with an extraordinary amount of breaches. Copying and distributing violates many known laws such as property rights, copy right infringements, as well as many types of torts. Equally important is a breach of the system itself. This breach can and may cause numerous violations putting this company in non-compliance regarding federal codes and state statues. For example, if servers are accessed through an unauthorized fashion, the data stored within may be stolen, compromising property of the company as well as the copyrights to the original owners of that data. The major concerns that currently plague all internet functioning companies are unauthorized access to their networking infrastructure. Such access will greatly affect the company

Internet network management framework as consisting of three major par.docx
Internet network management framework as consisting of three major parts: MIB, SMI, SNMP. To what extent do you believe this constitutes a framework? Are additional parts needed? Why isn’t ASN.1 considered part of the framework?
Solution
In my opinion there major parts of the network management framework can be considered a framework because each serves as a component within the network itself, with this said there are no other parts needed. ASN.1, or abstract syntax notation 1, serves as a base for the SMI, SMI has an ample amount of data types to be thought of as a separate entity.
SMI(structure of management Information) This is a format used to define operations and variables related to objects in the MIB. SMI is more of a language then a structure and it is a language used to define the management information. A cogent language is needed to ensure that data is not vague. SNMP(Simple Network Management Protocol.) SNMP is a protocol used to manage the management communications between devices. This is the short version of SNMP in any case
ASN.1(Abstract Syntax Notation One) Is \". ..a standard and notation that describes rules and structures for representing, encoding, transmitting, and decoding data in telecommunications and computer networking
ASN.1 not considered part of the framework:
ASN.1 for SNMP, the group responsible for SNMP deviated from ASN.1 in various ways which make it impossible for general purpose ASN.1 Tools to fully handle SNMP MIBs. They not only use the withdrawn ASN.1 MACRO notation, but use it in such a way that even ASN.1 Tools which still support the obsolete ASN.1 MACRO notation cannot properly handle the MIB definitions. You need a special tool created specifically for SNMP MIBs to fully parse and handle them properly

international ECO 305 course- how does culture embrace globalization a.docx
international ECO 305 course.
how does culture embrace globalization and the economy ???
Solution
Globalization continues to be a divisive subject among political activists, academics, business leaders, and policymakers. Some look at the rapid economic and political changes taking place around the world and see injustice. Others observe these same changes and see progress. On both sides of the debate, however, much of the discussion takes place among elites. What do average citizens around the world think about the powerful global forces transforming their societies? Survey research suggests that most people embrace the idea of a globalized world, albeit cautiously.
The main economic premises of globalization are generally accepted in regions throughout the world. People tend to believe their countries will benefit from trade, free enterprise, and investment by foreign companies. These views are especially common in many of the world

Insight Communications Promotes employees with good technical skills i.docx
Insight Communications Promotes employees with good technical skills into supervisory positions and then teaches them leadership skills.Is this the vst way for the company to get supervisors to lead well?Why and why not
Solution
This is the best way for the company to get supervisors to lead well.
1) This is because the already skilled employees of the comapany are turned into supervisors.
2) They have a know-how of how work is done in the company.
3) They have better rapport(communications ) with other employess.
If instead of this a supervisor is hired as a completly new employee, he will then only have the leadership and management skills. He won\'t have technical skills like an internal employee of the company. This is a major demerit because a person is supervising othe employees who dosen\'t know about the technical work the employees are doing. How can he supervise them?
4) They have a technical know-how.
5) the will cost the company less to convert alredy existing staff to supervisor tha to hire a new one

Infrared radiation is also called IR- Describe how it is different fro (1).docx
Infrared radiation is also called IR. Describe how it is different from visible light. What emits IR? Can animals use it? Explain how emission of IR sometimes “wastes†energy. Give examples showing how IR is used in modern technology.
Solution
Infrared Radiation consists of electromagnetic waves with wavelengths ranging from 700 nm to 1 mm. These radiations cannot be detected by human eye. On the other hand, visible light consists of electromagnetic waves ranging from 380 nm to 700 nm. These radiations can be detected by human eye.
IR are also known as thermal radiations. All objects emit and absorb IR. The hotter the object, the more IR it will emit. Dark surfaces are good emitters of IR.
Some animals have the ability to sense IR, known as IR vision. These animals have specialised IR sensing organs known as pit organs. For example: snake, mosquitoes, bed bugs and vampire bats are kind of animals that uses IR sensing to track their prey or any potential danger approaching them.
Infrared radiations are associated with thermal energy. In most of the devices, emission of thermal energy is waste of energy. For example: a light bulb generates heat along with light energy on passage of electricity. Now this heat energy is not a useful energy and gets wasted in the environment.
Use of IR in Modern technology:
1. It is used in heat sensitive thermal imaging cameras. They are used to study heat patterns of humans and animals. They are also used as night cameras.
2. IR is used in gas monitoring and analyzing systems. These systems are used for testing air samples to see what gases are contained in that sample.
3. It is used in thermal imaging and thermal motion detection. Thermal imaging is used by firefighters to see where a burning building is too hot to safely enter. Thermal imaging is used for space imaging and to know the temperature of distant stars.

Infrared radiation is also called IR. Describe how it is different from visible light. What emits IR? Can animals use it? Explain how emission of IR sometimes “wastes†energy. Give examples showing how IR is used in modern technology.
Solution
basic differences are- The electromagnetic spectrum comprises all wavelengths of light from the very short (gamma rays) to the very long (radio waves). Both visible and IR light are near the middle of the spectrum
The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is the distance between peaks (or troughs) of the wave. IR radiation has longer wavelengths than visible light.
The frequency of a wave is a measure of how many times the wave oscillates between its minimum and maximum amplitude in one second. The frequencies of IR waves are less than the frequencies of visible ligh
All objects on Earth emit ir r adiation
Blood-sucking insects, such as bedbugs and mosquitoes, rely on their infrared vision to feed themselves. They can \"see\" body heat and use the heat signature of the carbon dioxide (CO2) gas that humans and other animals naturally exhale to locate their prey.

Is the ability of the human ear better or worse than the sonic capabil.docx
Is the ability of the human ear better or worse than the sonic capabilities of a CD quality audio system? What can a digital engineer take advantage of because of this fact? Name the four classes of coding methods. Identify whether each compression method is lossy or lossless: Morse Code_____Run Length Encoding_____JPEG_____Say the relative frequencies of four symbols in an alphabet are 1/2,1/4,1/8 and 1/8. What is the entropy (numerical value) of the alphabet? Suppose we want to compress two sound recordings, A and B that are in.WAV format and equally long. If the entropy of A is twice that of B, which recording has a greater amount of randomness? Which recording should we expect to be shorter in compressed form?
Solution
As already short answer provided for other questions except Q10, I am answering it.
10)
Relative frequencies of four symbols in an alphabet are, ½, ¼, 1/8, 1/8,
So P(1) = ½
P(2) = ¼
P(3) = 1/8
P(4) = 1/8
Entropy of the alphabet = H(P) = - [ P(1) logP(1) + P(2) logP(2) + P(3) logP(3)+ P(4) logP(4)]
= - [1/2log(1/2) + ¼ log(1/4) +1/8 log(1/8) +1/8 log(1/8)]
= - [(-0.150514998) + (-0.150514998) + (-0.112886248) + (-0.112886248)]
= 0.526802492

Solution
Yes your answer is right.
i) Half reaction represents either the anodic half or cathodic half reaction.Here the question is asked about half reaction in iron electrode. In the given cell, Fe is acting as cathode. Hence it should undergo reduction. your equation representing reduction of Fe 2+ to Fe is right.
ii) Ionic equation including state symbols is asked. Ionic equation is nothing but the overall cell reaction represented in ionic form. Simply it is combination of cathode half reaction and anode half reaction. In the given cell, Magnesium is the anode. It undergoes oxidation. i.e. Mg(s) to Mg 2+ by loss of two electrons. We have already seen the cathode half reaction of reduction of Fe. Combining these two half reactions we get the overall ionic reaction
Mg (s) + Fe 2+ (aq) --------> Mg 2+ (aq) + Fe (s)

Inorganic Chemistry - Wurtzite vs- Rock-Salt Structures Beryllium oxid.docx
Inorganic Chemistry - Wurtzite vs. Rock-Salt Structures
Beryllium oxide (BeO) prefers the Wurtzite structure type (typical of ZnS) while LiF prefers the rock-salt structure type (typical of NaCI). Why does this happen? Use the following terms/words in your explanation a) ionic radii b) chemical bonding
Solution
Beryllium oxide prefers wurtzite structure type whereas LiF prefers rocksalt type structure.
If we look all these elements, namely, Be, O, Li, and F falls in the second period of periodic structure. Atomic radius decreases from left to right in the periodic table. This is because of addition of an electron in the same shell of the atom which compresses the atom due to more attraction towarrds the nucleus. The electronegativity of elements increases from left to right since it is inverse property of atomic radii. Atomic radius of Be 2+ is less than Li + whereas atomic size of O 2- is more than F - . Moreover, LiF is ionic in natute due to coulombic interaction of highly electropositive atom (Li) and highly electronegative atom (F). On the other hand, BeO is having covalent character along with ionic character in their chemical bond. Thus, BeO prefers wurtzite structure type whereas LiF prefers rocksalt type structure.

Indonesian lenders are the most profitable business in the world- The.docx
Indonesian lenders are the most profitable business in the world. The average return on equity is 23% more than double the 9% in the US. The main issue is he limited supply of official lenders, prompting an average interest of 16-20% for short term loans (BusinessWeek, 2/24/13). Some consider this a form of usury. Usury is an excessive or exorbitant interest charge. In order to prevent usury, and politicians trying to save the \"little guy\" from the clutches of the greedy \"money lenders\", Indonesian government steps in and sets the upper limits on what can be charged for loan to 18%. Today, market forces pushed the interest rate at 20%, only $10 million in loans were made but 32 million were demanded. Graph the loan market and show the impact of setting upper limits on interest rate. Please explain.
Solution
it happend because of the government intervention, according to this expanation it is obeserving that the Indonesian business entities are in need of funds and even there are some people, having with surplus funds.
becuse of the ceiling in interest the flow of funds declined into the market, if the situation runs for a long while it leads to create many problems.
the supply is lesser than demand of funds, so automatically the lenders seek high interest rates other wise they wont ready to lend their money at lesser interest rates.
